Teams representing UTC Portsmouth were excited to be part of the recent RN Engineering Challenge, which took place at HMS Sultan on 21 March. They competed against up to 72 teams from all around the country. Each team had to build a remote controlled vessel that is capable of recovering objects from the sea bed. Our students certainly learnt a lot from taking part and will look forward to putting everything they learnt from the experience in place for next years challenge.
